There’s no way to come up with a post title that can do this justice, other than the name of the dish, so I’m not even going to try. I got wind of this from some good friends who are bacon addicts, and was intrigued. But it wasn’t until I got a hold of the recipe and saw the pictures that I became seriously afraid.
You see, what the Frankensteins behind this artery-clogging offering to the gods of angioplasty have done is made a woven mat of bacon, added a layer of seasoned pork mince, sprinkled with cooked bacon, then rolled the whole thing up and slow-cooked it over a hickory fire.
Now, I love bacon and pork, but do these people understand the forces they’re playing with? There’s some primal pig sitting in a primeval sty just waiting to get out and give us all heart attacks. I swear that every time a Bacon Explosion is made, the sty gate is opened just that extra inch…
So over to you… what’s the unhealthiest thing you can come up with?

Oh maaan…It doesn’t work that way. TOO MUCH FAT! ><
This seems a) like a perfectly reasonable thing to eat if you only eat some of it.
b) like it could really use some cheese.
@Dan: a) I’m presuming (hoping) that if you cook it long enough over a grill, the majority of the fat actually drains off. (b) Absolutely. Everything could really use some cheese.
